Hands-on training at EBI - Joint EMBRACE-EBI workshop: understanding protein structures
Course Summary
Title: Joint EMBRACE-EBI workshop: understanding protein structures
Date: 17-20 February 2009 Venue: Hinxton, Cambridge, UK Organisers: Christine Orengo & James Watson Admin Support: Alison Barker & Janet Copeland Registration Deadline: 17th December 2008 Payment Deadline: 16th January 2009 About this CourseAs part of its training program, the European Network of Excellence EMBRACE runs regular advanced courses on bioinformatics tools and services. This course, run in partnership with the European Bioinformatics Institute (EBI) as part of its training programme, will provide instruction and hands-on training in protein structures using several public databases and bioinformatics tools freely available on the internet. The course is aimed at novices who wish to find out about protein structure and how it relates to their own research, as well as researchers already familiar with protein structure who wish to find out about new ways to analyse and present their data. Registration Closed. Cost
Topics includeSearching for structures in the PDB and their schematic display; exploring the structural classification of proteins in the CATH and SCOP databases; identifying similar folds in the databases; examining the 3-D orientation of catalytic residues; identifying functional residues and patterns in the data; investigating small molecules bound to macromolecular structures; linking functional annotation to structures; investigating membrane proteins; studying and visualising protein interactions; homology modelling; and communicating information using protein structure.
